This is a valid knock on teleradiology. But I took the specific job in private practice I did precisely because I wanted to have peers, teach residents, and otherwise have a varied work-life experience (yes, including working from home sometimes). How can we blame radiologists for taking the jobs that are available?

Leaving private practice is hard. As vRad’s Medical Director, I interview radiologists every day who are wrestling with that difficult decision. For those considering teleradiology, the thought can seem particularly daunting. Even in the face of exhaustion and burnout, they run up against loyalty to their colleagues.

"If private practices don't thrive and don't survive, then everyone has to become an employee at some point, and the leverage we have and negotiating power of radiologists goes away."

By holding onto their radiologists’ money for longer, they can keep these funds earning interest, which helps their bottom line. A reader recently reached out asking for my thoughts on their partnership-track teleradiology-only employment offer with an RP-owned group.

I honestly thought a traditional radiology career could provide a healthy work-life balance, but during residency, fellowship, and a few years of private practice, I had not managed to achieve it. I wanted a well-rounded life: a fulfilling radiology career and significant time with my family. And so I started to look elsewhere.
